Ah, yes. The ADM1A. I remember it fondly. I had one at home, connected to a 300 baud acoustic coupled modem. My cat liked to sleep on top of the terminal in the Winter because it was warm. One day, the cat barfed into
the keyboard. I took the cover off the 1A, took it into the back yard,
hosed the cat barf out of the keys, dried it out and it worked like a charm.
Xterm and Konsole do it for me today. Don't forget that IRAF users still need the Tektronics emulation of xterm to display their plots.
